Structural Biology (metal) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 7 Structural Biology (metal) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Chemical modification of proteins via metal-mediated processes

University of York York Biomedical Research Institute

Chemically modified proteins can be used to understand, treat, and diagnose disease. However, relatively few chemical reactions can be used to modify proteins, severely limiting the diversity and applications of new technologies. Read more

Chemical energy conversion in biology studied using advanced spectroscopic and structural tools

University of Leicester Department of Chemistry

Redox properties of metal-containing active sites are critically important to many biocatalytic processes. one third of all proteins contain a redox-active metal, and ca 22% of submissions to the Protein Data Bank contain a transition metal. Read more
